Ser Portela é a luz que ilumina todo ser
A Portela é tão bela
Como um lindo alvorecer
O samba dominando o mundo
Assim se apresentou a soberana majestade
Nascida de um movimento suburbano
Rompeu fronteiras, difundindo a igualdade
Teu pavilhão trago no peito de verdade
Eu levo a alegria e o amor
Sou lenitivo, sou secular
Meu pai oxóssi alimenta minha inspiração
Mamãe oxum enche de brilho o meu cantar
Que venham cem e outros cem pra te homenagear
Solo sagrado que os antigos batizaram
Olha a jaqueira
Vejam quantos frutos deram e se multiplicaram
Meu fundamento é Portela
E está aos pés da minha águia altaneira
Meu sincretismo, está e sempre estará
Entre Oswaldo Cruz e Madureira (Bis)
